Introduction
The Layer N SS-015 Smart Sensor provides an easy way to integrate process and digital pulse inputs into a Layer N
ecosystem. SS-015 Smart Sensors provide a wireless sub-GHz interface that reads process and digital pulse inputs and
transmits them to a Layer N Gateway and the Cloud. External process and digital signal devices connect to the SS-015
through an M12 5-pin connector
(recommended M12.5-S-M-FM screw terminal accessory sold separately)
and easily pair
to a Layer N Gateway through a one-button pairing system. The device can be powered by internal batteries, USB power,
or an optional power supply (sold separately).
The SS-015 may be configured to monitor the on/off state of the input signals, the pulse rate/duty cycle of the primary
input, or the pulse delay between the two signals. The pulse totalizing function supports both standard counting and
up/down counting.
A mixed-mode configuration option allows for the measurement of one process input and one digital pulse input which
supports frequency (rate), pulse width, pulse duty cycle, and pulse counting (totalizer).
Important:
Do not power off the Layer N Gateway or the Layer N SS-015 before the Gateway registration is
complete.
